• Samsung is rolling out a new 'Trips' feature to Samsung Wallet
• This automatically groups your travel plans, creating a timeline within the Wallet
• You can also manually add itinerary items and notes

Samsung Wallet just got a big upgrade, as the company is now rolling out what it calls ‘Trips’ — a feature that lets you organize and manage your travel plans all in one place.

You can add all your travel tickets to Trips, whether they're for flights, hotels, buses, trains, car rentals, sporting events, or excursions, and then it automatically groups them together based on things like time and location, and creates a travel timeline.

You can also go beyond just adding eligible tickets by manually adding itinerary items and including your own memos alongside saved items.

The end result is that you can have a comprehensive travel schedule, complete with tickets and important information, all within Samsung Wallet.

All your travel plans in one place

Trips is a nice idea, since your tickets can already be housed in the Samsung Wallet, so it’s an app you’ll probably be turning to a lot. It makes sense to be able to include other relevant information too — and have it all grouped so it’s kept organized and easy to find.

And this isn’t something you’ll really find anywhere else on Android. Google Wallet lets you add similar kinds of tickets, but won’t automatically turn them into a grouped timeline, and while there are third-party apps for creating travel itineraries, you usually have to manually add tickets to them, if they support tickets at all.

Trips is rolling out this month, so if you don’t already have it on your Samsung phone, you should do soon — though right now, it’s only coming to users in the US, UK, and South Korea.
